Spring: Renew and Rejuvenate
Spring symbolizes growth and renewal. As nature blossoms, this is the perfect time to cleanse and invigorate your body.
Wellness Tips for Spring:
Embrace Light, Cleansing Foods:Â Incorporate more greens, sprouts, and citrus fruits to support your liver and aid in detoxification.
Seasonal Acupuncture Treatments:Â TCM views spring as the season of the liver. Acupuncture can help address feelings of irritability, improve digestion, and boost your energy levels.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage:Â Detoxify your system and reduce any residual sluggishness from winter with a soothing lymphatic drainage massage.

Summer: Stay Cool and Energized
Summer is a time of warmth and high energy, but the heat can sometimes lead to exhaustion or inflammation. Maintaining hydration and balance is key.
Wellness Tips for Summer:
Hydrate with Cooling Foods:Â Add cucumbers, watermelon, and mint to your diet to counteract heat and keep your energy up.
Cooling Acupuncture Treatments:Â TCM emphasizes "cooling" acupuncture points during summer to reduce heat-related irritability and inflammation.
Relax with a Swedish Massage:Â Unwind and de-stress with a gentle massage, perfect for easing muscle tension after outdoor activities.
Beat the heat this summer! Schedule a cooling acupuncture or massage session at Zazen Massage + Wellness to stay energized and balanced.
Autumn: Strengthen and Prepare
Autumn is a season of transition, inviting us to slow down and build resilience as we prepare for the colder months.
Wellness Tips for Autumn:
Support Your Lungs:Â Add foods like pears, ginger, and honey to nourish your lungs and immune system as respiratory illnesses become more common.
Acupuncture for Immune Support: Bolster your body’s defenses with acupuncture, which can enhance lung and large intestine meridians, helping to ward off seasonal illnesses.
Hot Stone Massage:Â As the weather cools, indulge in the warmth of a hot stone massage to relax your muscles and soothe your mind.
Stay strong this autumn! Contact Zazen Massage + Wellness for immune-boosting acupuncture or a warming massage therapy session.
Winter: Rest and Restore
Winter is a time to retreat, conserve energy, and focus on restoration. It’s also the perfect season for nurturing self-care rituals.
Wellness Tips for Winter:
Warm, Nourishing Foods:Â Enjoy soups, stews, and herbal teas to keep your body warm and your digestive system healthy.
Acupuncture to Support Kidney Health:Â TCM identifies winter as the season of the kidneys, making it a great time to focus on building energy and vitality through acupuncture.
